BQ79616-Q1: Register map changes according to the Device DIE Revision.

Part Number: BQ79616-Q1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ79616

Tool/software:

Dear  Sir/Madam

We have been working on BMS design based on BQ79616 chip. I  have recently requested sample source code  for BQ79616 and you have provided that. I have noticed that there exists some additional  registers for  different DIE revisions  (  Revision B0 ).    Datasheet section 9.5.4.2.3  (DIE_ID1 through DIE_ID9 )  reads  Revision information.  I have included one of these registers shown as below (  quoted from B0_reg.h  source file )

#define BQ79616_CURRENT_HI 0x5D6

#define BQ79616_CURRENT_MID 0x5D7

#define BQ79616_CURRENT_LO 0x5D8

But looking at the datasheet , these registers does not populate in the register map.

Please clarify this issue and explain how can we be sure that we will be ordering chips with correct DIE revision ?

Regards,
